Kitten? Based on the ear-to-head size ratio, I would say adolescent cat at the youngest. But I can say that I do recognize the power of little furry angels to make life easier. As for the liking you question, you can count on the fact that if you feed a cat, it will like (or at least tolerate) you!

So, Jean-Luc is the cutest cat in the world, except for YOUR cat. While I love and still miss the other kitty, looking at the world through Jean-Luc's unprejudiced eyes has certainly reminded me of a lot about the world.

Incidentally, he DOES love me, though he also loves the neighborhood cats and our dog. A born compromiser, he willingly submits to any any all, changing them as he submits to them.
